Equal Opportunities

We aim to provide an environment where children are helped to develop respect for one another, where
differences are valued and all children are encouraged
to take part in activities which interest them; there are no ‘boys’ or ‘girls’ only activities.

We ensure all children are welcome whatever their race, culture or nationality.

What kind of ground rules operate?

We want the children to enjoy a pleasant environment at the clubs and hope their time here will be an important part of their daily lives. In line with school policy we expect high standards of behaviour and the following guidelines may be helpful:

µShow respect to each other and the adult supervisors

µTake care of the games and equipment provided

µNo fighting or play fighting is permitted

µRunning and noisy activities are not permitted indoors

µInform a member of staff if you need to use the toilet

µAll food and drink must be consumed at a table

µThe kitchen is out of bounds to children—please ask
if something is needed
